It never ceases to amaze me how many interesting things I read about Ancient Greece from posts like this in HN, from what I was taught in school (most probably I didn’t pay attention).

I'd strongly recommend some ancient philosophy.

The History of Philosophy podcast gives a good introduction starting with the Greek / pre-Socratic philosophers.

There are a few others, including Stephen West's Philosophize This (<https://www.philosophizethis.org/>) and Carneades: (<https://www.carneades.org/>).
